Dear,

My supplier install a new hard disk in my desktop PC - a Seagate 160 MB
Serial Ata.
Running SETUP, I can't detect the drive. But the System Information on
Accessories/System Tools is full.
I ask: what and where is the problem? Is dangerous? Can I install the
Operating System in the future?
Note: The BIOS is Phoenix Technologies SMBIOS 2.3

Sincerely yours

Is the drive listed under Administrative Tools/Computer Management/disk
management??
is the drive online and formatted??
Did you load the SATA drivers ??
When you say SETUP...do you mean the BIOS setup.??? and if so is SATA turned
on??
